I picked it up on a humble bundle because I heard it had good local coop (my brothers been down since his computer died) Finding out that the PC version doesn't have this feature is a real downer, and the fact that its unsupported in regular multiplayer is just disappointing

The servers are closed put you can still play lan but if you want to play online you can download tunnglehttp://www.tunngle.net/index.php?l=enjust install create an account and search for "sacred 2" network

There is probably some LAN emulation somewhere out there, but it'd be a pain to find it. Argh.

https://www.evolvehq.com/ - This is the best and easiest method I've found for gaming over a VPN or virtual lan. I've used Hamachi for years and tunngle before this, and this was by far the easiest. It's actually an IM client/social network for gamers, similar to Xfire, and to use lan in any game that supports it with someone over the internet, you just install the IM client, add each other, then right click their name in your buddy list and 'Create a party'. As long as you're in the party, you and anyone else should appear to each other for LAN play in any game supporting that option. I definitely recommend it over hamachi or tunngle for ease of setup, use, and compatibility with games.
